About this map

Felton anchors the southwest corner of this Northwest Georgia landscape, where the Felton Post Office and Felton Cemetery serve as local touchstones. The terrain is defined by the significant rise of Cobb Mountain and Hightower Mountain, which overlook a network of creek-fed lakes and small rural settlements like Youngs and Antioch. The map reveals a high concentration of water management features, including several dams such as the Euharlee Creek Structure Number Four Dam and Hightower Lake Dam Number One.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the quadrangle, including Saint Johns Cemetery and the Mount Zion East Church Cemetery. The area around Fish and Becks Lake in the north suggests a landscape of small-scale agriculture and recreation, anchored by landmarks like Camp Antioch. The density of named creeks, from Little Cedar Creek to Bordens Creek, illustrates the complex watershed that has shaped the roads and communities here.
